Ok, so I am not a parent of a type 1, I am a type 1 myself with a newly diagnosed 5 year old nephew. I am coming to the experts with my questions: Which lancing device do you recommend (looking for pain free, of course) And where are the "coolest" id tags found? (of course, recommendations of excellent education and endos in the denver area would be great too!) Thanks!

Hi to all of you! I'm Riccardo, right now a new member, and dad of Nicola (now 11 y/o) who has been diagnosed type 1 when he was 8 y/o.

Florida Medicaid is bs man they are so interested on how much money they save, not the needs of the person.
Comment by Fighting for Stephany on November 15, 2010 at 1:55pm
I'm still waiting for a response. I called today and they gave me the run around. Alot of bs. Keep trying to get it, it's a great tool for controlling BS. Don't give up.

Replying to "Fighting for Stephany", I too was just denied by medicaid for the the CGM! We had a appointment set up and everything. My daughter's doctor called and canceled on the same day she was suppose to get it! I have been having trouble also concerning the expense aspect of it. I don't know what to do about it as well?
Comment by Fighting for Stephany on November 14, 2010 at 9:42am
My daughter was put on a CGM system, and it feel it will be a great tool to monitor her BS at night since that's when get the lows. But if any one has any suggestions please let me know. But our goal is the pump.

Hey, my Tu Diabetes friends...my girlfriend has Type 1 diabetes, so I just started a campaign called 'Run To Stop Diabetes'. Visit www.RunToStopDiabetes.com for more info on the campaign & let me know what you think!! We're running the 2011 ING NYC Marathon to raise money & awareness for diabetes.

MKsMon, we also have a 1 year quickly approaching. We are having family come over to commemorate. we are presenting her with a new diabetes bag, and having a little party to let her know how proud we all are of her, and the things she has been able to do this year.
Comment by MKsMom on November 8, 2010 at 5:23pm
Tomorrow (Tuesday November 9) is my 11-year old daughter's one year anniversary of diagnosis. Any suggestions about ways to celebrate how much she's overcome and learned and triumphed this year?
